Wabi Asian Kitchen — Restaurant in Quindío

6.5 out of 10 - @theveggiesloth

Asian inspired restaurant in Salento. The place is small (around 5 tables) but the atmosphere is good and service is friendly and fast.

They offer a little salad as courtesy of the house. I ordered a rice bowl that comes with a soup - however the soup includes meat so I could not eat it, they should have a veggie soup to offer with the veggie dishes as the only solution they gave me was to remove the soup but price would not change so I would be paying same for the dish but for a reduced portion.

I had a rice bowl with veggies in tempura, it was tasty and crunchy. My boyfriend had the soup that was supposed to come with my dish and said it was Ok but nothing too special. He also had fried rice with veggies and pork, good quality/quantity for money.

Overall the experience was good and i would recommend if you are craving some asian food while in Salento. However, I would recommend the owners to improve the options...

I don’t know where to start! I love this restaurant for so many reasons!

First off, Jumpei is one of the sweetest persons on earth. He’s a gem. I loved his energy and though I’ve been skeptic of Asian food in Colombia in general, he made me want to try his food!

So I did!

And, wow, this is the first Asian restaurant I’ve been to in a while here in South America that has brought me back home. I recommend the gyoza so much! His wrap dough is soooo good. Light. Everything cooked perfectly.

We also got the mushroom appetizer and it was absolutely divine. Didn’t expect those flavors.

The katsudon 😍 definitely sated my asian flavor craving.

The place itself is small and cosy! Definitely aided with the whole dining experience.

You absolutely cannot miss this if you...

My for ever favorite restaurant in salento. We went multiple times. Let me explain:

First the check is the sweetest and so talent Greta authentic Asian food. The local is very small with 4 tables so make sure you reserved or go early. The service is great, there is a couple working so you will see either the Argentina guy or the Colombian girls working very attentive.

Then the food, of course súper important. The best ever entrance were the gyozas and the spring roles which is very nice to share.

The tempura prawn is the best of all tempura pieces. The pasta noddles are a must and don’t forget to order one of the rices plates.

The hace a great different lunch menu and...
